The live screening will take place on February 16.

The TED 2016 Dream Conference will be screened live at Bluewater Shopping Centre’s cinema.

The conference is held twice a year and it invites influential people to discuss technology, entertainment and design.

It is being hosted in Vancouver by TED curator Chris Anderson, with 1,200 people set to attend.

General manager at Showcase Cinemas, Mark Barlow, said: “The venue in Vancouver sold out in minutes and as the event will not be broadcast online, we’re really excited to be able to offer our customers the chance to see it as live and in the comfort of our cinemas. I can guarantee it will be the best seat in the house.”

The event will be screened at Bluewater’s Cinema de Lux on February 16.
